T0 a/ZZ whom it may concern,.-

Be it known that I, WILLIAM JEFFERSON GLOVER, a citizen of the UnitedStates, residing at Noble, in the Vcounty of Lamar and State of Texas,have invented certain new and useful Improvements in Chimneys; and I dodeclare the following to be a full, clear, and eX act description of theinvention, such as will enable others skilled in the art to which itappertains to make and use the same.

My invention relates to a novelform of smoke-due or chimney; and theobject is to provide a simple,l durable, and practically ireproof flueof this character for dwellings, stores, and all other forms ofbuildings requiring a device of this kind.

To this end the invention consists in the construction, combination, andarrangement of the device, as will be hereinafter more fully described,and particularly pointed out in the claim.

Figure 1 is a perspective view of my improved iue with a portion of theroof broken away to show the manner of fixing the line in place. Fig. 2is a vertical longitudinal section of the same.y Fig. 3 is a perspectivedetail of the contiguous faces of two of the sections separated.

1 denotes the roof of the structure, and 2 2 the parallel girders. 3 3represent parallel cross-braces fixed to the upper sides of saidgirders, and 4 represents the base-section of the iiue or chimney,formed with the lateral flanges 5 5, which are secured to said braces 33 by means of the bolts 6 6, the heads of the bolts being connected by aplate 7, on which the flanges 5 5 rest, While the lower rectangulardepending socket 8 extends Hush with or projects through the ceiling ofthe apartment to receive the stovepipe 9.

10 10 denote transverse braces connecting the cross-braces 3 3 and onwhich the next flue-.section 12 rests in such a manner that its lowerface Will form a joint with the upper face of the base-section 4. p l

13 14 15 16 17 18 19 2O 21 represent the superimposed Hue-sectionsterminating in 'the cap-stone 22, the entire series being formed withcentrally-alined orifices, as shown,whicl1 constitute the iue orsmoke-passage. 5o

The contiguous faces of each of the sections are formed with acontiguous groove 23 and with a recess 24, so that when the sectionsareassembled a layer of cement or other suitable binding material may beplaced between to cement the whole into one rigid column.

Having thus fully described my invention, what I claim as new anduseful, and desire to .secure by Letters Patent of the United States, 1sl The combination with the girders, the crossbraces and the transversebraces connecting said cross-braces, ofthe base fine-section 4 formedwith the lateral horizontal anges 5 5, the plates 77 and thesupporting-bolts 6 6 con- 65 necting said plates, base-section andcrossbraces, and the superimposed due-sections,

substantially as shown and described.
